Electrical Swath Ships with Underwater Hulls Preventing the Boundary Layer Separation

The body shapes of aquatic animals can ensure a laminar flow without boundary layer separation at rather high Reynolds numbers. The commercial efficiencies (drag-to-weight ratio) of similar hulls were estimated. The examples of neutrally buoyant vehicles of high commercial efficiency were proposed....
